More than 13,500 students learned injury prevention and safety skills through our injury prevention program, ThinkFirst of Greater Kansas City, during the 2025–2026 school year! 🧠🚗 This year, the program delivered 115 presentations at 50 schools, teaching students about brain and spinal cord injury prevention, distracted driving, helmet use, e-scooter safety, sports safety, water safety and more.

An educator provided the following comment in the post-program survey said, “The impact is amazing and so very educating. These students don't always listen to us about making decisions but hearing it firsthand is a game changer. This is a wonderful program, and we are so thankful it's available to the community."
